TO 'sgrub in the head'' in sheep, says:
ts'Iake a smooth piece OF wood, with cor

between your knees, then give it two or
three good blows with the stick between
the eyes, striking lengthwise of the head.
This seems like severe remedy, but find
it sure, as have not lost a single case
since have tried it. In case the sheep
does not improve repeat the remedy. Do
not be afraid of striking a good blow, as q
sleeps head is formed so as to. stand a

woman named Hennessy {from the

having concealed firearms and q man
by the name of Hennessy from North
Riding Tipperary, was tried the same
day for being out after hours in a pro-
claimed district. The woman was de-
tended by the Earl OF Ossory or Ross

lasted two days. he woman was
transported. Her husband offered to
take her place but would not be &C
cepted. She was afterwards released
from the Cove of Cork. William Hen
messy sat in the dock during the time
waiting for testimony to his character
from Mr., Sadler, stipendiary magis-
trate. When Sadler was asked for q
character for this man he said he did not
know him. Hennessy had three letters,
however, vouching his good character,
two from magistrates and one from a
lady. Sadler having read che letters,
Baker replied that any man or woman
might write letter. Where were they
to swear to them? Hennessy, however,
was discharged TO the Joy of the multi
tudes, who carried him over their Shout
.ders, as discharge was SO very rare in
those days. Baker was shot on his way
home that evening. A large reward
(some thousands) was offered, but no in
former was found. There were three
men executed at the time near Clonmel,
but not for Baker. These facts are

in Ulster, was founded hy Murtogh
O'Loughlla, King Of Ireland, with the
concurrence OF the kings and mobiles OF
Uldah and Ergallia, ETC., and dedicated
10 the Blessed Virgin, st. Patrick and
St. Benedict. The abbey was con-

To THOSE who pirate about Cleveland's
chances for re election should he decide
to enter the field, the following from the
st. Louis Republican, will be of interest:
Said Col. Joe Hickey at the Southern
last night: Il asked Don Cameron some
time e what he thought of Cleveland.
The only thing that can beat him. said
he, is some sort Of a financial panic
which can be laid at the doors OF the ad-
ministratlon. In such a case he would
probably be beaten, no matter whom we
may put against him. As it stands now,
however, | think he is sure of reelection.
He has shown himself to be an honest,
independent and fearless official and the
predictions that financial ruin would fol-
low his election have been disproved.
DO you l asked, talk this way to mem
bers OF your own party?' Why not?' he
answered. 4 have no desire to cheat
them or to cheat myself; the conditions
are plain.

The Omaha Republican has a long arti-
Gle on the subject Of personal journalism
in which it takes the ground that 1.-THE
personal journalist is the most despised
of all mankind. Everybody holds him
in contempt, but few care to quarrel with
him. They prefer to give HIM a wide
berth. His touch is polluting, and his
touch communicating"
Within narrow limitations this may APP
ply to personal journalism, but after all
there is nothing that adds spice and
p~iquancy to newspaper columns like per
sonalities. By this we do not mean
personalities in a sense that is simply
abusive and maliciously critical but from
the standpoint OF manly, straightforward
and honest criticism of men before the
people. Strictly impersonal journalism is
as insipid as ditch water and so long as
human interest centers in humanity Just
so long will personal journalism, properly
understood, prove the leaven of newspaper
life.

He Wasn't Sure.

A passenger who arrived on the Chey-
enne & Northern last evening says that
the train dispatcher at Bordeaux reminds
him of pr. Martin, of Lusk, the physi-
clan who, during the Trumble trial, stated
he held a post-mortem examination on
Miley, the victim of the homicide, and
then declined to swear positively that the
murdered man was dead.
The operator is one of those brief and
laconic individuals who considers the mon
osylablcs yes and mo" sufficient reply
to the most intricate question. The gen.
tleman who relates the incident listened
to the affirmative and negative responses
to his numerous queries as to the wherca-
bouts OF the anticipated train, the proba-
bic time of its arrival, cause of delay, etc.
until absolutely weary, and mentally for
INFLATED a desperate resolution to force
the dot and dash disciple to utter a sem
tence consisting of more than one word if
possible. He stood on the steps leading
to the box car which is used as the Bor-
deauX telegraph station and at the terml-
nation of a string of irrelevant questions
which elected the detested replies, said:
Young man, do you know where you
are?'
The response, though not what he had
expected, satisfied him and he retired. 1t
was this: Not sure of it. Engine may
come long this side track and knock my

which is of local interest:

done by Miss Sarah G. Frost, one of the
leading society ladies' ofCheyenne, Wyo.,
who presented it to DR.. w. NJ. Garrard,

DR.. Garrard had it placed in an elegant

from an engraving in Jumpers for April

Kentucky. The coloring is delicate and
would do credit to a professional artist.

IT is said that an extra train over the
Union Pacific is an assured fact. The
crying need of the additional facilities
which such a move would afford is quite
apparent to everybody. Nobody ever
expects to see either the east or west
bound trains arrive here on time nova
days. Sometimes the delay is due to
causes wei which the Union Pacific
officials have no control, but not always.
Freight traffic interferes with the passen-
ger traffic which is said to be larger to-
ward the West than at any period since
1883. No one will ever dispute that the
Union Pacific is very unfortunately stu
ated in its relations with congress, but
there are duties which it owes 20 the
public which should not be overlooked.

THE death of Mrs. Dinah Mulock Craig
is announced. She was86l years old.
Mrs. Craig has been long before the liter
airy world wherein she was recognized as a
prolific writer. Among all her novels
John Halifax Gentleman" stands easily
at the head of the list. She was a pure
minded, lovablc woman who, while she
never attained the rank of George Eliot or
Jane Austin, has lett behind her much
work that will elevate and none that will
contaminate mankind.
